bad idea i have had

I have tried to download linux redhat 7.2 on a dial up modem using download accelerator plus after about 32 hours of downloading and it get to about 90% of the download it just loses all that its downloaded and starts again

I have DSL, it took me 6 hours, for both CD's, Download accelerator doesnt really help, try GoZilla... It opens simultaneous connections to the server instead of one, so you get faster speed.... But buying the CD's is a good option for Dial-Up users

Be careful about using Go!Zilla. I think it might have "spyware" embedded in it. If you don't know what spyware is see this linkhttp://www.lsfileserv.com/faq.html#a8 Check out the whole site while you're there. A lot of the "free" programs are great, but they come at a price. They might have "spyware" embedded. This means that the free software you downloaded might have elements that "call home" with information on where you are browsing and other info. If you download anything you might want to download the Ad-Aware program so you can check it for spy-ware first. Ad-Aware is a free program.

For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
